# Category Sort vs Beat The Deck

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Category Sort at 13K against Beat The Deck's 2. Category Sort also leads on chart position (#129 vs unranked). Beat The Deck's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Category Sort sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Beat The Deck sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Beat The Deck holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Category Sort has 13K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
